The Wind Rises Chapter 124 Shelter in the Night, the Dragon's Shackles
Wang Yu, along with Ziggy and Noelle, went to the chapel where the Night Lady was transformed into Daknis.
This is actually Wang Yu's stronghold hut, but the outside has been repaired and renovated by the believers with bricks and stones, and it does look like a decent small church.
The Night Lady didn't know why he liked to sit on the chaise longue he had made himself at the door of the cottage stronghold.
Occasionally, at the request of believers, he would walk around the church and see how the believers were developing.
Sometimes the identity of "Holy Maiden" is used to convey the meaning of the Night Lady, that is, his deity, or the meaning of Wang Yu.
So when Ziggy and Wang Yu came to the door of the chapel together, what they saw was Ms. Daknis who was slumped on the chaise longue and swaying slowly, well, it did look a little unpresentable, but the quiet and leisurely temperament of the Night Lady herself did have a different aura when it appeared on the person he had transformed.
"Hello Your Excellency Daknes, I am a friend of Wang Yu, Sieg Wilsbach, and I have come today to ask for the help of the Night Lady."
Daknis sat up, glanced at Ziggy, blinked, then looked at Noelle, who was holding his brother's leg behind him, revealing half of his face, and finally turned to look at Wang Yu and gave him a look.
“?” Wang Yu was puzzled, Ms. Night, is this a look for herself, your old man is really living more and more like a person, not like a god.
However, Wang Yu still has a hand in observing words, and he understands what the Night Lady means, and he is roughly questioning whether Ziggy can be trusted, Wang Yu nodded.
"Hello, Mr. Zigger, I am Daknis and the embodiment of the Night Lady." Daknis got up from the recliner and shook Ziggy's hand.
And the words that came out of her mouth shocked the well-informed Ziggy.
"I'm sorry, it's rude, Queen of the Night, Eunice." Ziggy hurriedly apologized for the wrong name of the Night Lady before, although it was forgivable that he didn't know the true identity of this saint before, but after learning his true identity, he couldn't be lazy anymore.
"Please stop calling me Eunice, that was my name in the past, now that I'm free from the shackles of the past, I'm more happy to call myself Daknis now." The Night Lady, or Darknes, took it seriously to correct the error in Ziggy's words.
"I'm sorry, Miss Daknis." The professor was stunned, but quickly changed his name at Daknis's request.
"Well, so what request did you and this cute little dragon have for me this time?" Daknis crouched down, stretched out her hand covered in black veil, and touched Noelle's red hair, which was hiding behind Ziggy.
Noelle looked a little scared, but it seemed that the Night Lady had a natural affinity, and in the end she didn't dodge, allowing Daknis to touch her head.
"That's right, I want her to stay in the Night Church for a while, and if you can, you can use the power of the night to protect her from being perceived by some powerful beings."
Ziggy spoke his request very carefully, and his tone was as peaceful and gentle as usual, but this professor of high status had a little more pleading than usual at this time.
"A powerful presence? Did you provoke anything, or did you say, oh, was it the existence of the guy Wang Yu who borrowed my power to cast the "Eternal Night Sky Dome" that day? That thing can't seem like a god to me, or is it unimaginably powerful, a dragon? ”
"Well, yes, I'm a rebel, or rather, my sister is a rebel." The professor's tone was very serious, and then he pulled down his sleeve, and the aura that belonged to the dragon clan was revealed, and a layer of dragon scales also appeared on the professor's human form arm.
"Ahh I didn't expect you to be a dragon too, I didn't even perceive it, your concealment ability itself is very strong, if you have this level of ability, you shouldn't need my protection. ”
"No, it's not a stealth ability, it's my natural cripple, and I'm called the "Winged Dragon" by those who know about it, because my real name is crippled, and the magic circuit of my dragon body is also mutilated, and I can't use the dragon's own dragon magic or my own power. ”
Ziggy shook his head, his expression unchanged, he had been relieved for so many years, and besides, he had found his own path.
"Ah, I see, but the possibilities of such a powerful creature as a dragon are infinite in itself, right, I guess you have also found your own path and the direction to become stronger."
Daknis nodded knowingly, the identity of the humanoid dragon in front of him was now known to him, it was the mutilated dragon that Avia had sheltered with the Eternal Night Dome that day.
"Yes, I've found my own direction, but as you said, the infinite possibilities of the dragons have eventually put a shackle on all of us." Ziggy touched the place of his heart, and even in his human form, the hot heart was still pumping hotly.
"Yes, I want to know about the past of your dragon clan, as for protection, since you are Wang Yu's friend, this is just a gesture, I will not refuse." Daknis agrees to Ziggy's request in advance, but also shows curiosity about Ziggy's past.
Ziegy was stunned, it was the first time that he had communicated so closely with the "gods", and he didn't expect the Night Lady to show curiosity that was no different from that of a human.
Glancing at the pitch-black dome above him, Ziggy smiled wryly, "If Shuggin knew that I hadn't told him about this, and had told a god first, I guess I wouldn't have been able to say anything about me, Lady Daknis, is there enough seclusion here?" ”
"No problem, my realm has covered this piece, and the other gods can't sense that you're talking about him here, and the unprecedentedly powerful dragon clan can't sense it, don't worry." The Night Lady spoke in a flat tone, but full of confidence.
"Then I'll be relieved." Ziggy sighed.
"You talk." Wang Yu waved his hand, he didn't listen to other people's secret plans.
"It's okay, Wang Yu you know it's okay." Ziggy patted Wang Yu's shoulder, who turned his head and was about to leave, for Wang Yu, a friend who has not known each other for a long time, Ziggy is confident that he has not seen the wrong person and can be trusted.
"Thank you for your trust." Wang Yu is not hypocritical, and he is not curious about Zige's past, which is also false.
As Ziggy narrates, the powerful race of dragons fades out of the sight of the intelligent race, and some corners of the reason for being called legendary creatures begin to appear.
Ziggy's family is a very strange combination, Ziggy himself doesn't know what kind of dragon he is, but it is a fact that he was crippled from birth, his sister is a silver dragon, and his sister is a red dragon, except for him, they are all healthy.
Their parents don't know where to run since they were born, but this is also very common in the dragon race, but I don't know why there are three eggs in a family, which are three different kinds of dragons, and the egg incubation cycle of the dragon family is very different, which is also how to distinguish siblings from the same nest of eggs.
After Ziggy was born, his sister took care of her, and Ziggy found herself very different from her older sister, who seemed to grow in strength as she grew older, and also had different magical abilities that she mastered.
But Ziggy is different, he is not only crippled, his real name is broken, his wings are deformed, his magic circuit is also broken, and he does not grow in strength as he grows older.
Only the physique is a thing, it is true that it is getting stronger with age, but he doesn't have anything that other dragons should have, whether it is magic or something else.
He was quite confused for a while, he was the worst one in the dragon clan, he asked his sister why he didn't have those powers, and his sister's answer was because the dragons had lost the god that imprisoned them, but they were put on a new shackle by their king, and the birth of Ziggy happened to be in the window period when the two alternated.
He didn't understand it at the time, until the thing that his sister called "King" appeared on the heavenly dome of the dragon clan, how powerful, how twisted, what a magnificent thing, he could never forget the golden dragon eyes that poked out of the clouds one day, and the huge claws.
All of them are too strong in line with the pure dragon bloodline, all the characteristics that the pure blood dragon race should have, the "he" that appears in the sky has it, and it is precisely because it is too perfect, in the eyes of the still immature Zig, it is a distorted existence.
All the dragons in the dragon land seem to be unable not to admire, not to fear, not to surrender.
In addition to Ziggy and Ziggy's sister, Ziggy has some estrangement from the dragon race because of his disability, and seems to have a special resistance to "him".
And Ziggy's sister, Ziggy still remembers that this female dragon with a different temperament, in the cave where Ziggy was, protecting Ziggy and his sister who was still an egg, looking at the terrifying existence, silver hair flying, chanting his name "Irelian", and forcibly stabilized his will.
"When he retreated, the dragons who had not been able to stabilize their will became his subjects, or rather, believers, I still don't know what he really is, Irelian only told me that our king has replaced our former gods, and he has become our new yoke."
"The dragons who bowed down to him became the bulk of the dragons today, and they locked themselves on an island in the Endless Sea, which is now the land of the dragons."
"And my sister, Irelian, entrusted Noelle to me, and then embarked on the path of finding other dragons to resist and rebel against him, she was always so confident, so strong, sometimes I envied her, sometimes I felt that she was a little tired, I think I hadn't seen her for hundreds of years, Noelle was so old."
With emotion in his words, Ziggy reached out and touched Noelle's head next to him, these stories, which may attract the attention of "him" once they are spoken, Ziggy has never shared them, and now it is much easier to say them.
"Well, interesting story." The Night Lady nodded.
"Indeed." Wang Yu agreed.
"Don't you have any ideas?" Ziggy was a little curious, the Night Lady could be so indifferent and agreeing as a god, but Wang Yu didn't show any surprise at all.
"It's too far away, how powerful that thing is, it's useless for me to care about it, with my current strength, I'll just listen to it as a story."
Wang Yu's positioning of himself is still as clear as ever, the professor's story can be called shocking, this may be a secret involving the entire continent, but it really still has no impact on Wang Yu, what he has to do is to do the current thing.
"Ah, indeed, thank you for the help of the Night Lady to keep Noelle with you for a while, I am not a competent brother, and I have wronged her before." Agreeing with Wang Yu's opinion, he thanked the Night Lady again.
"It's okay, what a cute little guy, no one will bully her here." Daknis took pity on Noelle, who had gradually become acquainted with him, the little red dragon was actually quite lively, just to help Zigg share his worries and not be exposed, and he had been discriminated against by other children and did not resist, so he looked a little silent.
"Then I'll take my leave, there are still many things to deal with, the Night's Edge will give the Nightfall Church a sum of money, this is my gratitude and we hope to get your friendship, I hope the church is getting better and better."
gave a hug to his sister who was a little reluctant but sensible and didn't make trouble, Zig was ready to leave, Wang Yu had nothing to do, and he also planned to return to Wangcheng.
On the way back, Ziggy handed over a jar of things to Wang Yu.
"This is my thank you, you really helped me a lot, Wang Yu."
Wang Yu looked at this big jar of bright red liquid, and was a little confused, this thing...
"It's... It can't be dragon's blood, right? ”
"Well, it's some blood near my heart, and when I didn't have roots in my early years, I made money by selling this, which should help your knight cultivation, but my blood doesn't have the unique magic related parts of the dragon clan, so there shouldn't be a way for you to awaken the mage talent, only to strengthen your body."
"This, thank you, if you don't have magic, it might be more suitable for me." Wang Yu didn't expect that Qi Ge would give him dragon blood, which might be of great help to Wang Yu, and without the special dragon blood mixed with magic power, it might be more suitable for Wang Yu in a sense.
"Ahh Actually, it's nothing.,It seems that there was a kind of weird pride when I was a dragon before.,It seems that this thing is one of the few things related to the dragon bloodline of my crippled guy.,But after the human world came to crawl and roll, it gradually disappeared.。 ”
"Humans have really influenced me a lot, although my handicap has caused me to lose a lot of power that belongs to the dragons, but I also seem to have found a way to the so-called infinite possibilities that do not belong to the dragons."
"Those professors in the academy, as well as those magicians, I can also choose the path they choose, and that is knowledge."
"I think this thing is really infinitely possible, whether it is the dragon or even him, there is a limit, but knowledge, there is no limit."
Wang Yu looked at the professors who could surpass a large number of earthlings with their own thinking, and sincerely sighed uneducated, "Awesome!" ”
(Haha, the professor is really powerful, people from other worlds, where will they be inferior to earthlings, it's normal for each to go out of their own wonderful path)
